ABSTRACT
Los problemas de salud más frecuentes fueron: Hipertensión arterial: 46 por ciento. Incontinencia urinaria: 30 por ciento. Enfermedad coronaria: 15 por ciento. Caídas: 15 por ciento. Obesidad: 12 por ciento. Problemas de salud no referidos por los pacientes: Incontinencia urinaria: 30 por ciento. Caídas: 37 por ciento. Constipación: 7 por ciento. Trastornos prostáticos: 7 por ciento. Elevada proporción de pacientes con Polofarmacia: Pudiendo ocasionar Caídas e Institucionalizaciones. La gran mayoría eran independientes para las actividades instrumentales de la vida diaria, dada su condición de ambulatorios. A partir de este relevamiento se sugieren nuevas líneas de trabajo: Corroborar la adherencia de los hipertensos a la medicación. Evaluar indicaciones de medicaciones y su utilidad terapéutica. Un elevado porcentaje de los pacientes evaluados no tenían médico de referencia. Actualmente continúan ingresando pacientes en el protocolo.

Peptides corresponding to sequences derived from predicted extra- and intracellular loops of the rat bradykinin receptor were analyzed for interspecies homology as well as for matches within the present dataset of protein sequences to provide a theoretical basis for the specific recognition of the native cognate protein by antibodies raised against these antigens. Apllication of polyclonal antibodies raised against the selected peptides allowed the immunocytochemical localization of the native receptor protein in cells of rat and human origin. The detection of the molecule was achieved by different immunohisto- and immunocytochemical methods in combination with light, fluorescence, confocal optical laser and electron microscopy. These results were compared to localization studies by autoradiography. Distribution and subcellular localization were determined in human neutrophils, human epithelial carcinoma cells (A431) and in rat kidney tissue
